3515 Artesia Blvd., Torrance CA, 90504 When Rorion Gracie and his brothers first began revealing the secrets of their family art of Jiu-Jitsu, they taught anywhere they could throw down a mat. Known as the "garage days" by those early students who fondly remember grappling in makeshift classrooms cobbled together in spare bedrooms and empty car garages, it was a period of growth and experimentation for Rorion and his family. During this intial phase, the Gracies established their curriculum and teaching methods, adapting them to best meet the needs of their students. It Wasn't long, however, before the demand for Jiu-Jitsu instruction by Rorion mushroomed beyond his cottage-industry facilities. In order to accommodate the expanding list of applicants pleading for instruction, he began to design what was to be the first American Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy. So it was August of 1990, Rorion officially opened the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy at 1951 West Carson Street in Torrance California. The world of martial arts would never be the same again. In 2007, the Gracie's relocated their academy to 3515 Artesia Blvd. in Torrance, 10 minutes away from the old academy.
